Special Presentation – "Social Skills and School"
Date: Thurs, November 27th
Time: 7:00pm
Location: Kerrisdale Community Centre, 5851 West Blvd, Vancouver, BC V6M 3W9

RSVP to dione@abasupportnetwork.com

This is a free event. Please RSVP so we can plan for space and refreshments.

Thank you!

Description:
We are thrilled to have special guest speaker Leah Mumford (M. Ed, BCBA, BA) who has prepared for us a presentation about social skills and school for children with autism.

Children with autism often have challenges with the social skills required to enter and engage in appropriate play, and often end up alone or on the perimeter of the group when at school.

Structured social skills groups (or "Lunch Bunches") are one way to help children with autism spend lunchtime with a specific group of peers that play, learn key social skills and develop friendships together.

These groups are a structured social skills setting with several objectives: 1) to provide children with autism greater possibilities for developing friendships with peers; 2) to provide a structured setting to facilitate learning and generalizing specific social skills and behaviour management; and 3) to provide the framework for SEA's and ABA-SW's to effectively integrate and include children into successful play situations.

The discussion will cover how to create a structured social skills group within the school setting, the benefits and challenges associated with these groups, and how to measure progress.

PLEASE HELP US and forward this information to any parents or educators that you know! THANK YOU.
